TLDR
It is shown that a residue located in the kinase activation segment, which is termed the “DFG+1” residue, acts as a major determinant for serine-threonine phosphorylation site specificity.

mTORC1 Phosphorylation Sites Encode Their Sensitivity to Starvation and Rapamycin

TL;DR: The hypothesis is that differences in substrate quality are one mechanism for allowing downstream effectors of mTORC1 to respond differentially to temporal and intensity changes in the levels of nutrients and growth factors as well as pharmacological inhibitors such as rapamycin.

Kinome-wide Decoding of Network-Attacking Mutations Rewiring Cancer Signaling

TL;DR: Six types of network-attacking mutations (NAMs) are identified, including changes in kinase and SH2 modulation, network rewiring, and the genesis and extinction of phosphorylation sites, and mutant molecular logic gates and kinase-inactivating hotspots in cancer are discovered.

Structural and Functional Analysis of the Cdk13/Cyclin K Complex

TL;DR: Using recombinant proteins, this work finds that flavopiridol inhibits Cdk7 more potently than it does Cdk13, and provides insights into the structure, function, and activity of human Cdk 13/CycK.

The Protein Kinase Complement of the Human Genome

TL;DR: The protein kinase complement of the human genome is catalogued using public and proprietary genomic, complementary DNA, and expressed sequence tag sequences to provide a starting point for comprehensive analysis of protein phosphorylation in normal and disease states and a detailed view of the current state of human genome analysis through a focus on one large gene family.

PhosphoSitePlus: a comprehensive resource for investigating the structure and function of experimentally determined post-translational modifications in man and mouse

TL;DR: PhosphoSitePlus as discussed by the authors is an open, comprehensive, manually curated and interactive resource for studying experimentally observed post-translational modifications, primarily of human and mouse proteins.

Mechanisms of specificity in protein phosphorylation

TL;DR: A typical protein kinase must recognize between one and a few hundred bona fide phosphorylation sites in a background of ∼700,000 potentially phosphorylatable residues.

LKB1 is a master kinase that activates 13 kinases of the AMPK subfamily, including MARK/PAR-1

TL;DR: The results show that LKB1 functions as a master upstream protein kinase, regulating AMPK‐related kinases as well as AMPK, and may mediate the physiological effects of L KB1, including its tumour suppressor function.
